| ciaran egan | Mar 8, 5:11PM | Can a complete beginner survive this? I can do 10k in 60 minutes on the road; what do you think? |
| Brendan Lawlor | Mar 8, 5:13PM | Ciaran, you won't get an easier introduction to hill running so you'll be fine |
| Donal Troddyn | Mar 8, 7:20PM | Yeah, go for it, Ciaran. It's a nice short course and no one ever regrets mountain running. |
| Dermot Murphy | Mar 10, 10:52AM | Volunteers - Thanks to all who have signed up. Can volunteers meet at Hellfire at 10:30am on Sunday morning? Please let me know if you will be later than this so I can take this into account when assigning roles. Car-Pooling - Can people try to car pool as much as possible, as there is limited car parking at the venue. The prize giving location is Buglers in Rathfarnham, so this would be a good place to meet up for car pooling. |

| chris van der velden | Mar 23, 2:01PM | our first run in Ireland, the Hellfire. a real nice experience for us "Lowlanders" from the Netherlands. We liked the ambiance and trail. Although it was remarked as an easy run, for us whose highest point is the top of a dyke, it was rather heavy. Thank you people of the IMRA. We will surely come back. Chris and family |
